I don't get why people get so uptight about it been touched, maybe if they was purposely messing it up. The user who said she smacked the woman's hands away, that's a bit far tbh it's not like she came at you with a javelin.

But yeah, I just them hurry up & play so that I can keep on my way. Buuut, some people, like the poster will touch back by swating that hand away, but usually that embarrass both the curly hair beholder & the curl crazy touch-ee. =P ~Well, If not the curly haired person, then at least it embarrasses the touch-ee!! That ends up sounding more like revenge! XD
